I can't imagine a better weekend than what I just had.
Friday night:
Reading a romance novel and watching the Cubs win while texting with Dad. (Rizzo!!!)
Saturday:
Kris had a last minute homework emergency, so I went hiking without him. The 200-foot waterfall in Waterfall canyon was beautiful!
I ran some errands because I knew Kris was working at my place and didn't want to disturb him. I picked up a cute dresser that I got online, and we spent a decent part of the evening cleaning it and getting it set up. We also walked down to Yogurtland, which was nice because I didn't have to feel so guilty about the calories.
Sunday:
Church. (An announcement was made for someone named Hal's funeral and luncheon. They requested more food and people to help set up/clean up. And then they said, "Please bring your favorite beer." I wish I would have known this guy!) Cubs game. Ran errands with Kris. Assembled bar cart. Watched the Jazz win.
I was all excited, thinking that we would be just like Chip and Joanna from Fixer Upper. But really, the title of this afternoon could be "Kris Made Me Something I Saw on Pinterest." I helped a little with the spray painting, but his technique was better than mine. And it was tricky getting that contact paper on there! I couldn't have done this without him. But we were really excited about the finished product.
Step 1: Spray paint Sennestra cart from IKEA. (Cart was $30)
Step 2: Cover the surfaces with marble contact paper ($13 from Amazon)
Step 3: Assemble cart
Step 4: Decorate. We definitely need more liquor for that bottom shelf! And I'm actually not crazy about the color; I wanted a brighter gold. We might have to repaint at a later date. But for now, it works!
